This cut allows for the majority of the light that enters the diamond to escape reducing
the
amount
of
brilliance that the diamond possesses. However, this makes for a good option in diamonds
that
are
much
smaller in carat as the opportunity to view the reduced brilliance is significantly
smaller.

This cut is one that we recommend as it serves as a style that is both well proportioned
and
carefully
angled allowing it to possess a luminosity.

This serves as the greatest value of cut that is available to the customer at an
excellent price
and
allowing for a significant amount of light to pass through so that the brilliance viewed
is to a
higher
level.

This cut reflects the greatest amount of light increasing brilliance just below a cut of
excellence.
When viewed in normal lighting conditions this cut appears up to the same caliber as
Excellent,
with
a
lesser price point for the customer.

This cut allows for the maximum amount of brilliance to be viewed in the diamond. This
cut
reflects
almost the entirety of light that enters the diamond, which allows for maximum sparkle.
